Jennifer Hudson - I Know Where I've Been lyrics

There's a light in the darkness Though the night is black as my skin. There's a light, burning bright, showing me the way But I know where I've been There's a cry in the distance (Ohhhh) It's a voice that comes from deep within There's a cry asking why I pray the answer's up ahead 'Cause I know where I've been There's a road we've been travelin' Lost so many on the way But the riches will be plenty Worth the price, the price we had to pay There's a dream in the future There's a struggle we have yet to win And there's pride in my heart 'Cause I know where I'm going, yeah And I know where I've been. There's a road we must travel There's a promise that we must make Oh, but the riches, (the riches will be plenty) I share the riches Worth the risks and the chances that we take There's a dream, in the future There's a struggle that we have yet to win Use that pride in our hearts to lift us up to tomorrow 'Cause just to sit still would be a sin I know it, I know it, I know where I'm going Lord knows I know where I've been Oh, when we win, I'll give thanks to my God 'Cause I know where I've been
